Ganjaman007 · 11-03-2007, 08:59 PM

brendan_fn_james · 11-03-2007, 09:29 PM

I saw Dragonforce in concert in NY a few years ago when they were on Ozzfest. They put on a good show but again I'm not a fan of powermetal, but I don't find the 'cheesy'ness in it most seem to laugh at - I find it just too fast and a little to symphonic for my liking, but boy oh boy can they shred!

Ganjaman007 · 11-04-2007, 01:42 AM

After I saw them,I'll admit they are talented guys but its just to much for me.I think they're trying to hard

If you do want a good laugh, I'd suggest scoping their music videos;

YouTube - DragonForce - Operation Ground and Pound

I'm sorry but their keyboardists and singer just crack me up in the videos. I love the asian guitarist too bad he is in a power metal band.

the trade-off solo in the "Through the Fire and Flame" video is inhuman

i don't understand how anyone can play as fast as they do, and for 6 or 7 minutes straight, wow

i worry though that they might sometimes emphasize pure technicality too much over just having a good musical story to tell

shleppin · 11-04-2007, 01:11 AM

they play about 50-60 bpm slower live than they do on record

they still are a pretty good band

pretty funny video..

Herman Li is cool

Ganjaman007 · 11-04-2007, 01:14 AM

Those are funny videos and Herman Li is an awesome guitar player but I guess its not my favorite kind of metal.Great solos though
